General
you want to know where I am right now? emotionally dead I would say im what 2 months of not drawing? how is it whenever I get the drive back to do it everyone just seems set out to fucking kill it? I am not doing this shit anymore I've had enough. I say I got something prepped for halloween and nobody wants to see it?
"do it for yourself" no fuck you guys this does not help, you know how demoralising it is to post something in a discord group get no damn response only for someone else to post and suddenly the groups are active. OH NOW YOU GUYS WANNA SAY SOMETHING oh whats that you know I'm upset about getting nothing so you say "oh I dont comment I'm sorry" I saw you fucking comment on other peoples stuff don't fucking lie
I am low I just forever quit can you guys stop with the lies you dont give a shit

So here's my advice to you.
Please just take a break.
It breaks my heart seeing you like this, slowly going insane.
You are one of my favorite artists, but I don't like vocalizing myself often online in fear of consequences.
So here's what I did when it came to the exact same situation you're in.
Please re-evaluate your priorities.
You're driving yourself insane trying to get attention.
I want you to put yourself in the perspective of someone passing by and seeing your work.
They probably look at it, say "Hey, that's neat," and then move on with their lives about 2 minutes later.
Why should you be trying to appeal to people who will never truly appreciate your art?
Art shouldn't feel like your way of finally getting recognition in the world. It should be something you enjoy. Something you want to do.
